NGD Jagstang

[Lee77]

I know these divide opinion but i managed to get a good deal on it and 24 inch scale left handed guitars are very very rare, at least affordable ones are.

 

It is so easy to play. It does rest nicely on a strap and is comfy to play sat down (even without contours).

Nothing wrong with a good offset. Looks fab 👍

Right way round for that hybrid.

The necks on the 1st run of Jagstangs are said to be some of the best that Fender ever put on a 6-stringer, especially the 24” scale ones. Very nice score 👍

Alas, it is a 2021 run but I believe (from extensive forum reading) they are all based on Mustang necks. The 7.25 inch radius fretboard is really comfortable.

Bit too blobby for me, but still a nice find! These are hard to come by.

Would love a Mustang myself, but for now my 24" lefty needs are served by an Ibanez ORM1 Omar Rodriguez-Lopez signature (he of The Mars Volta fame). I just wish it had a neck pickup

I was tempted by one of them a while ago! There are not many of them around either.

Someone shared the ad on a Dutch bass forum I frequently visit. It was sold together with an Ibanez GSR180L for a mere €100 and I couldn't resist. It's made in China, and nothing like the higher and MIJ Ibanez jobs, but it has its charm and plays and sounds great. It did take a bit of work (mostly a LOT of cleaning) and the neck has some small dents here and there, but for the price I paid I don't complain. I'm donating the bass to a charity here in the Netherlands that collects cheap used guitars and basses and gives them away to kids in families who can't afford music lessons or gear.

I'm impressed with all of that 🙏
